Choosing the Correct Harness for your Switch AEN 157, Revision: 3 This Application Engineering Note will serve as a guide to selecting the best Corning Optical Communications MTP® to LC harness for your structured cabling application. This document will focus on Base-12 and Base-8 MTP to LC harnesses to cable a broad offering of LAN and SAN Switches from different vendors with LC Duplex Optical Ports. For switches utilizing Parallel Optic ports (MTP/MPO interface), please refer to AEN151 “Four-Channel Parallel Optic Connectivity Solutions Utilizing Base-12 Structured Cabling”, AEN152 “Four-channel Parallel to Duplex Optical Connectivity Solutions Utilizing Base-12 Structured Cabling” and AEN156 “Connectivity Solutions Utilizing Base-8 Structured Cabling”. What is a MTP to LC Harness? A harness is a cable assembly with a multi-fiber MTP Connector on one end and simplex or duplex LC connectors at the ends of up-jacketed legs. It provides a transition from the MTP Connectors used on the trunk cables, extender trunk cables or the back of modules to single- or dual-fiber connectors. Figure 1 shows a few examples of different harness constructions.
Figure 1: Different MTP to LC Harness Constructions What are the benefits of utilizing a MTP to LC Harness? When designing a networking system, it is important to plan the structured cabling beforehand. The goal is to address current network requirements as well as accommodate future growth. A structured cabling system provides the flexibility to address the commonly performed tasks of moving, adding or changing the infrastructure as the network grows. The use of MTP to LC harnesses help improve your structured cabling when utilizing high-density LAN or SAN switches.

There are a few major benefits of utilizing harness assemblies vs. traditional jumpers.
1. Harnesses provide a clean, high-density method for implementing port replication of high-density switches, which reduces risk of damage or error to the switch ports.
2. Harnesses occupy less space in cabinet and vertical managers than traditional jumpers do, as the 12-fiber cable end of the harness is much smaller than the equivalent amount of patch cords.
3. Reduce cable congestion in front of the LAN and SAN; improving airflow for an increase in cooling and facilitates easier moves, adds and changes (MACs).
4. Harnesses offering available include custom-engineered stagger of the LC legs to match the port pitch in the electronics to provide seamless integration between the cabling infrastructure and electronics.
What are the typical applications for MTP® to LC Harnesses? MTP to LC harnesses are used to port replicate the blades of a switch to facilitate the connection of these ports to other equipment. Based on the specific application and to what components they harnesses plug into, there are two types of harnesses, Module Harnesses and Trunk Harnesses. Modules harnesses connect directly to the back of a MTP to LC module, to port replicate the switch to a housing located in the same or an adjacent rack to the switch. This application is typically used when the switches are located in the MDA or for end of row switching. Figure 2 depicts an example of a Module Harness application.

Trunk harnesses connect directly to the front of the MTP®-MTP trunks to port replicate the switch to a housing located outside of the area where the switch is situated. This application is typically deployed when you have a general switching area and port replication is desired at the Main Distribution Area (MDA). Figure 3 depicts an example of a Trunk Harness application.
Figure 3: Trunk Harness Application What LC leg length should I use for a MTP to LC Harness? The optimal LC leg length for a harness will depend on the following factors: chassis model, blade type, blade port count, port orientation and cabling routing. Corning has worked with different industry vendors to provide harnesses with a custom-engineered stagger to match the port pitch across each of their data center switch product families, providing seamless integration between the cabling infrastructure and electronics. Stagger types 1, 2, 3 and 5 are exact engineered lengths designed specifically to match the port layouts across the different vendors’ switches. In addition, Corning offers a variety of uniform/non-staggered leg lengths (such as 6” (Stagger 4), 12”, 24” and 36”) depending on your cabling preference. Figures 4 and 5 show the different stagger configurations offered.

From which direction should I cable my switch utilizing MTP® to LC Harness? The best cabling direction for a switch will depend on two factors, blade orientation and fan/air intake location. For example, if your switch has horizontal blades and your fan/air intake location does not impede the harnesses coming in from the left or right, then it comes down to customer preference. On the other hand, if the fan/air intake is located on one side of the switch, you should bring your harnesses from the opposite side. The same applies for switches with vertical oriented blades. Corning has worked with different industry vendors to provide the optimal cabling direction based on the different switch chassis offerings. Figure 6 illustrates the different cabling directions.

With the broad offering of switches in the network market, there are several configurations of MTP® to LC harnesses from which to choose. The remaining information in this document will help you decide which harness would be the best fit for cabling your SAN or LAN switches. On the next page are Table 1 and Table 2, summarizing which harness Base-12 or Base-8 to use depending on the switch manufacturer, model, port count, port orientation and cabling direction. Part numbers for each of the different harness types are in Table 3 and Table 4. Pictures of examples of the different switches/blades installed with MTP to LC harnesses can be found in Appendix A at the end of the document.
